We arrived at the school for about 2.00pm an hour later than it was said to start I was very impressed with how they had transformed the grounds very festive with garlands and baubles in the trees. I introduced Paul to some of the teachers and then I showed him around whilst Abigail and Bradley went off to play in the reception area. Paul and I took a seat underneath a tarpaulin out of the hot sun and waited and waited and waited. Eventually at around 3.15pm Aunty Alberta announced that food was available for sale so at this the parents and children lined up to be served returning with various dishes. One young boy was sat next to Paul eating and spitting chicken bones out onto the floor which was annoying and others were just leaving empty foil containers around on the floor. Then Aunty Alberta welcomed everyone and a Christmas carol was sung however the children sang this sat in their seats instead of up on the platform whilst munching on food. By this time it was nearing 4.00pm so we had to excuse ourselves and make our way home to then pick up the car and drive to the Sand Plover.
